New Spell - Reflecto

[Sylar]

Alright so I'm not sure if this was thought of or mentioned here already but I'm going to give a stab at an suggestion. Here it goes!

Reflecto : A spell that lasts as long as Occlumency (based off your MP). If someone uses a spell on you while Reflecto is up, the spell will bounce off of the Reflecto caster and onto the opposing caster.

Example. I (Sylar) put up Reflecto which has a timer of seconds equal to my max MP (Like Occlumency) get a spell casted on me. Using Sven. Let's say she uses Melofors instead of the spell hitting me and the pumpkin landing on my head, it bounces onto her head. I should be unable to re-cast this spell for a while so it is not spammable.

Please direct any questions/comments about it and I'll try to explain it the best I can. Thank you for looking at my request.

From Sev "If you go to Jace's suggestion regarding converting target spells to projectile spells (http://forum.wizardschronicles.com/index.php?topic=1765.0) then perhaps 'Reflecto' could be a projectile or a 1 tile moving-spell that acts as a shield from the newly converted projectiles.

Example, Muffiliato (in projectile form) is cast by you in the direction of me. I turn and cast Reflecto which appears as a barrier one tile in front of the direction I'm facing (could be east, west, south, north, northwest, northeast, southeast, southwest) to protect myself from the spell; the Reflecto barrier 'swallows' the projectile.

It could work on the basis of the 'defense' stat for what it can defend vs a factor regarding the strength of the opponents spell (such as Level + (1/2)Damage or something).

Also, in extension to my previous point, perhaps Reflecto could then 'bounce' the oncoming projectile. Example; you cast a Muffiliato (projectile) at me, I use Reflecto (and my defense is over 1500 for argument's sake), thus instead of the muffiliato projectile being 'swallowed' by the reflecto, it bounces it in another direction (same concept as when flippendo meets projectile)."

From Kyo "Most likely the spell casted would be nullified at that point. However, it wouldn't deem Melofors useless because in between the timeframe of the long cooldowns of Reflecto, Melofors would be able to be casted. After reading Severus' post though, it does seem like it might be good to give the Defense attribute another use and make it last off the amount of seconds based off your max Defense. I don't think this spell would have an effect on Telendevour seeing as how that spell already has a counter."

From Lav "While reflecto is up, you cannot cast ANY spells.

The cooldown on the spell will start as soon as you lower it, or as soon as a spell is reflected; Whichever is sooner."

I definitely like this idea would be fun to see in-game and funny to see other's have a 'wtf' moment when their spell gets reversed onto them.

What happens if I cast Reflecto before using a spell on someone else who has reflecto up? Does it get nullified?

Also, I don't think the time should be equal to MP otherwise spells like Melofors would be pretty useless 3:

I am liking this thread thus far. I'd like to see more thought/idea brainstorming about this.

I like this idea... practically. But I think Protego spell must do it; Protego is used to block and reflect spells.
It would be great if Protego was like that.
And I also approve making a CHANCE that spell will be reflected to the caster. It would be higher with some skill...

Just an idea~

While reflecto is up, you cannot cast ANY spells.

The cooldown on the spell will start as soon as you lower it, or as soon as a spell is reflected; Whichever is sooner.

Pitty. I don't know why hadn't I, myself, already understood that that idea is... (how to say in uninsultive way) for nothing.
